CA Technologies support is alerting customers to security risks with CA Total Defense. Multiple vulnerabilities exist that can allow a remote attacker to possibly execute arbitrary code. CA issued an automatic update to address the vulnerabilities. The first set of vulnerabilities are due to insufficient handling of certain request parameters. A remote attacker can use various SQL injection attacks to potentially compromise the Unified Network Control (UNC) Server. The second vulnerability occurs due to insufficient handling of file upload parameters. A remote attacker can upload a file and use it to execute arbitrary code on the Total Defense Management Server. The third vulnerability is due to insufficient protection of sensitive information. A remote attack can acquire account credentials and take privileged action on the Unified Network Control (UNC) Server.

Zero Day Initiative Advisory 11-126 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of CA Total Defense Endpoint. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within CA.Itm.Server.ManagementWS.dll. Due to a failure to properly sanitize user-controlled input, it is possible for a remote unauthenticated attacker to upload and subsequently execute arbitrary code under the context of the CA Total Defense Heartbeat Web service. Requests delivered to FileUploadHandler.ashx are subject to arbitrary file writes, including directory traversal attacks, in the GUID parameter. The Heartbeat Web service listens for HTTP requests on port 8008 and 44344 for HTTPS.
